After the Ragin' Cajuns held Arkansas State to 168 yards in total offense in their 23-7 win over the Red Wolves on Tuesday night - well below ASU's Sun Belt Conference-leading 481.3-yard average going into the game - UL coach Mark Hudspeth said he saw a defense "playing as good as I've seen them play since we've been here."

UL limited Arkansas State to just 79 yards rushing, including only 15 for Tennessee-transfer David Oku, the Sun Belt's No. 4 rusher before the night.
